Please follow up via emailed reply-to-all.

In fact, please report -mm bugs via email.  bugzilla is more suited to
longer-term problems, and -mm bugs are super-short-term, we hope.

Anything you can do to make that wordwrapping go away for ever would be
great, thanks.

I don't know what would have caused this.  do_ioctl() did a jump-to-zero,
but it has code in there to explicitly test for null pointers.

Perhaps some weird race, although I find it hard to imagine how we could
have such a race in any ioctl which bash is likely to be calling.

Is it repeatable at all?
